The title "The Joseph Project" reminds us of "seven years of plenty and seven years of famine". We believe that through individual and corporate action Malawian citizens can move from famine to live in a state of plenty and prosperity. Each year villagers experience hardship through lack of food because of the erratic rainfalls and limited production of non drought-resistant crops. Often villagers must re-locate to Mozambique inorder to engage with 'food for work' projects. In addition to this, there is a serious lack of employment, training and education opportunities.
The Joseph Project seeks to establish a sustainable system of crop production which will also address key social issues such as employment, training, education and economic regeneration.
